The Aztecs were a tribe of people in the north of mexico. When the Europeans came to America, they found many similarities between their and the Aztecs' beliefs'. Eg. The Aztecs worshipped a godess who was very similar to the Virgin Mary. The aztecs believed in human and animal sacrifice, they believed that the gods required human blood inorder to makeup for the blood that was spilled to make madkind or something. The sun God Huitzilopochtli was the main focus for the human sacrifice. Like Europe, the Aztecs had a heirarchal system and believed that everyone had a specific role in the society.
The Sun and Moon Story
The gods wanted to bring light to the world and they asked for a volunteer to become the sun. Not one, but two gods volunteered - the rich Tecuciztecatl and the poor Nanauatzin. At midnight, after five days of preparing to be sacrificed, they were taken to a terrible fire. Tecuciztecatl was told to throw himself into the flames. Four times he tried, but each time the flames drove him back. Then it was Nanauatzin's turn, and he rushed straight in. Tecuciztecatl tried again, and he followed Nanauatzin into the fire. In the morning, Nanauatzin rose and shone brightly in the sky. He was the sun. Then Tecuciztecatl appeared. He was the moon. To send them on their way, Quetzacoatl, the Wind God, blew hard until they moved through the heavens.
Clockwise- Where Aztecs were situated, an Aztec godess, Aztec aparrel, an Aztec god statue and a painting of and Aztec leader.
